You may be right. Greece is really going down the tubes and Spain looks as if it will follow shortly after.

If we can keep them from a civil war it could be good for the long term.

Sometimes a war produces a turn of events a hundred times better than could otherwise been obtained.

Also, sometimes there is zero chance of heading off a war.

Nothing can stop the coming European meltdown.
And
What will emerge will be better than what they have now. The sooner the collapse the less bloody it may be...not that there is any chance of it not being bloody given that it is Europe and they always do the murderous purge thing.

A better use of one’s effort would be to.get one’s loved ones out of there before it blows.
